I asked this yesterday, but does anybody know why when I transfer the video to my television with an S-video cable, everything that's on my screen shows up correctly on the telvision, but the video box is all black?  (And then of course if I go full-screen with it, my entire television screen shows black).

The live video overlay (or inset) is treated differently from the rest of the image. Not every PC handles it properly. If you can't get video at all on the TV, sometimes it helps to plug in SVideo, switch to SVideo, then reboot, and sometimes your PC all of a sudden understands what's going on. That's one issue you can't blame on CSTV.

When you buy your next TV, get one with a PC input. It's pretty impressive. The pixellated Cornell Webcast now plays on the big screen in all the glorious 320x240, or thereabouts resolution that's broadcast. From about 20 feet back, the image looks okahy.

Can you get any "application within a dialog" to display correctly -- for example, a YouTube?

The gearheads would know, but my first guess is that your PC doesn't know which window All-Access is playing in -- it is, pardon the phrase, a black box to it.

Edit: see, I knew they would know!  (see actual explanation, above)

Let's see if Cornell can close it out by staying aggressive on attack. Go into a defensive shell to protect the lead and Union can chip away at the lead. Union gets its 8th PP opportunity. Even a blind squirrel finds a few nuts.

"Unanswered goal" is more PC, less homophobic.

We had seven straight unanswered goals 3 (4?) years ago at Princeton, the Ryan Vesce 7 point, 7-0 blowout, plus whatever we got in the game before or after.

I like Scrivens, but he does some, um, odd things...I wouldn't be all that surprised if he took off down the ice and took a SOG...

First, there was the "check the guy at the blue line" play, for which he got a penalty.

Then, against Union, there was the "baseball-catcher moment" during which, on a puck deflected straight up, he went skating out to the face off circle with his glove out to catch it...he did change his mind and go back to the net, but it was unusual.  

He also spent some time against Union putting the blade of his stick in the face of the guy in front of him when we were setting up behind the net.  Just sort of blocking his view.  Not bad, just a little weird.

If you watch him closely, he is one of the dirtier goalies around.  He whacks people as they go by, elbows them when he can, whatever.
